Objective:To explore the relationship between sperm DNA integrity, semen parameters, seminal plasma neutral α-glucosidase activity and in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) outcomes. Methods:The clinical data of 300 male infertile patients who underwent routine semen analysis in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from October 2023 to April 2024 and whose spouses received IVF/ICSI treatment were retrospectively analyzed. The results of sperm DNA integrity [sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI)], semen parameters (sperm percentage, sperm density, sperm motility, normal morphology sperm rate) and seminal plasma neutral α-glucosidase activity at admission were recorded. According to their spouses′ IVF/ICSI outcomes, the 300 patients were divided into the successful pregnancy group (those with successful intrauterine pregnancy detected by ultrasound 30 days after transplantation) and the unsuccessful pregnancy group (those without successful intrauterine pregnancy detected by ultrasound 30 days after transplantation). The differences in sperm DNA integrity, semen parameters and seminal plasma neutral α-glucosidase activity at admission between the two groups were compared. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive efficacy of sperm DNA integrity, semen parameters and seminal plasma neutral α-glucosidase activity in male infertile patients at admission for their spouses′ IVF/ICSI outcomes.Results:According to the IVF/ICSI outcomes of the spouses of male infertile patients, 169 cases (56.3%) had successful intrauterine pregnancy detected by ultrasound 30 days after transplantation; 131 cases (43.7%) had unsuccessful intrauterine pregnancy. At admission, there was no statistically significant difference in clinical data between the two groups (all P>0.05). The DFI and sperm density in the successful pregnancy group were lower than those in the unsuccessful pregnancy group, while the sperm percentage, sperm motility, normal morphology sperm rate and seminal plasma neutral α-glucosidase activity were higher than those in the unsuccessful pregnancy group (all P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) values of single indicators including DFI, sperm percentage, sperm density, sperm motility, normal morphology sperm rate, and seminal plasma neutral α-glucosidase level in predicting the IVF/ICSI outcomes of spouses of male infertile patients were 0.719, 0.718, 0.812, 0.779, 0.769, and 0.736, respectively; the sensitivities were 70.42%, 77.46%, 69.01%, 70.42%, 69.01%, and 77.46%, respectively; the specificities were 66.38%, 55.02%, 81.22%, 73.80%, 77.29%, and 62.88%, respectively; the Youden indexes were 0.368, 0.325, 0.502, 0.442, 0.463, and 0.404, respectively; all differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Sperm DNA integrity, semen parameters and seminal plasma neutral α-glucosidase activity can assist in predicting IVF/ICSI outcomes, providing an important reference for the treatment outcomes of male infertile patients.

BACKGROUND:De novo adipose regeneration induced by small extracellular vesicles has become a promising method for repairing soft tissue defects.However,due to different animal models and small extracellular vesicle application dosages,it is difficult to quantitatively compare the therapeutic effect of small extracellular vesicles from various sources on adipose regeneration. OBJECTIVE:To compare the regenerative effects of small extracellular vesicles derived from stem cells and small extracellular vesicles from tissue. METHODS:Small extracellular vesicles derived from adipose-derived stem cells and from adipose tissue were isolated by ultracentrifugation.The particle number,particle size,morphology,and protein expression of small extracellular vesicles were identified by nanoparticle tracking analysis,transmission electron microscopy and western blot assay.A quantitative and evaluative subcutaneous model for adipose regeneration in C57 mice was established using a customized silicone tube.The regenerative effects of induced de novo adipose were compared by cell counting and hematoxylin-eosin staining. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Small extracellular vesicles derived from adipose-derived stem cells and from adipose tissue were isolated by ultracentrifugation.Both small extracellular vesicles were round-shape in transmission electron microscopy with particle size between 50-200 nm,and abundant with the small extracellular vesicles marker protein CD81,CD63 and TSG101.(2)An equal number of small extracellular vesicles were mixed with matrigel in customized silicone tubes,implanted subcutaneously in the back of mice to establish a cell-free and quantifiable adipose regeneration model.(3)On days 3 and 7 after implantation,the results of cell counting and hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that both small extracellular vesicle groups recruited more host cells than the blank group,and the small extracellular vesicles derived from adipose tissue group were superior to the small extracellular vesicles derived from adipose-derived stem cell group.(4)4 weeks after implantation,hematoxylin-eosin staining of the contents in silicone tubes showed that small extracellular vesicles induced de novo adipose regeneration in vivo,and the small extracellular vesicles derived from adipose tissue group were superior to the small extracellular vesicles derived from adipose-derived stem cell group.The above results indicated that small extracellular vesicles derived from tissues have a superior effect on inducing de novo adipose regeneration compared to small extracellular vesicles derived from stem cells.

[Abstract] [Objective] To construct inducible immortalization gene vectors for transfection into primary cells, enabling the establishment of a conditionally immortalized cell line that support their sustained cultivation and proliferation in vitro. [Methods] Using gene homologous recombination technology, the coding sequences (CDS) of immortalization genes-including human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), simian virus 40 large T antigen (SV40LT), acute myeloid leukemia fusion genes NUP98-KDM5A (N/K) and CBFA2T3-GLIS2 (C/G), as well as the proto-oncogene KRAS were precisely inserted into the tetracycline (Tet)-inducible eukaryotic expression lentiviral vector pLV2-TRE3GS-EGFP-MCS-3×FLAG-hPGK-Tet-On-SV40-Neo and the transposon PB-TRE3G-3×FLAG-T2A-Puro-SV40-PA. Lentiviral packaging, cell transfection, mRNA expression analysis, Western blotting for protein detection, green fluorescent protein (GFP) visualization, and cell proliferation assays were conducted to evaluate transfection efficiency and assess the regulatory effects of Tet on gene expression in 293T and MEF cells. [Results] The Tet-inducible lentiviral vectors pLV2-Tet-SV40LT, pLV2-Tet-N/K, and pLV2-Tet-C/G, along with the transposon vectors PB-Tet-hTERT, PB-Tet-SV40LT, PB-Tet-N/K, PB-Tet-C/G, and PB-Tet-KRAS, were successfully constructed. In 293T cells, the expression levels of all target genes were upregulated after transfection. In MEF cells, the immortalizing functions of SV40LT and N/K were validated. By modulating Tet addition, cell proliferation levels were effectively regulated, leading to the successful establishment of conditionally immortalized pLV2-SV40LT-MEF and pLV2-N/K-MEF cell lines. [Conclusion] The construction of Tet-inducible immortalizing gene vectors provides a technical foundation for establishing conditionally immortalized primary cell lines, thereby facilitating research on the large-scale in vitro production and expansion of blood cells, such as erythrocytes and platelets.
